Basketball Preview: Fremont Packers vs. Sparta Spartans
The Fremont Packers are taking a road trip to take on the Sparta Spartans at 5:30 p.m. on Friday. Given that both suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this contest.
Last Tuesday, Fremont was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap as they fell 41-37 to Spring Lake. The defeat continues a trend for the Packers in their matchups with the Lakers: they've now lost nine in a row.
Meanwhile, Sparta unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-court advantage in their season opener. They took a blow against Newaygo on Wednesday, falling 52-24.
Fremont was able to grind out a solid victory over Sparta in their previous meeting back in March, winning 45-32. The rematch might be a little tougher for Fremont since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
